mathiH 26
1 yIshuretAn prastAvAn samApya shiShyAnUche,
When Jesus had finished all these words, he said to his disciples,
2 yuShmAbhi rj nAtaM dinadvayAt paraM nistAramaha upasthAsyati, tatra manujasutaH krushena hantuM parakareShu samarpiShyate|
“You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified.”
3 tataH paraM pradhAnayAjakAdhyApakaprA nchaH kiyaphAnAmno mahAyAjakasyATTAlikAyAM militvA
Then the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders of the people were gathered together in the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas.
4 kenopAyena yIshuM dhR^itvA hantuM shaknuyuriti mantrayA nchakruH|
They took counsel together that they might take Jesus by deceit and kill him.
5 kintu tairuktaM mahakAle na dharttavyaH, dhR^ite prajAnAM kalahena bhavituM shakyate|
But they said, “Not during the feast, lest a riot occur among the people.”
6 tato baithaniyApure shimonAkhyasya kuShThino veshmani yIshau tiShThati
Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7 kAchana yoShA shvetopalabhAjanena mahArghyaM sugandhi tailamAnIya bhojanAyopavishatastasya shirobhyaShechat|
a woman came to him having an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he sat at the table.
8 kintu tadAlokya tachChiShyaiH kupitairuktaM, kuta itthamapavyayate?
But when his disciples saw this, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste?
9 chedidaM vyakreShyata, tarhi bhUrimUlyaM prApya daridrebhyo vyatAriShyata|
For this ointment might have been sold for much and given to the poor.”
10 yIshunA tadavagatya te samuditAH, yoShAmenAM kuto duHkhinIM kurutha, sA mAM prati sAdhu karmmAkArShIt|
However, knowing this, Jesus said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? She has done a good work for me.
11 yuShmAkamaM samIpe daridrAH satatamevAsate, kintu yuShmAkamantikehaM nAse satataM|
For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.
12 sA mama kAyopari sugandhitailaM siktvA mama shmashAnadAnakarmmAkArShIt|
For in pouring this ointment on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.
13 atohaM yuShmAn tathyaM vadAmi sarvvasmin jagati yatra yatraiSha susamAchAraH prachAriShyate, tatra tatraitasyA nAryyAH smaraNArtham karmmedaM prachAriShyate|
Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of as a memorial of her.”
14 tato dvAdashashiShyANAm IShkariyotIyayihUdAnAmaka ekaH shiShyaH pradhAnayAjakAnAmantikaM gatvA kathitavAn,
Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests
15 yadi yuShmAkaM kareShu yIshuM samarpayAmi, tarhi kiM dAsyatha? tadAnIM te tasmai triMshanmudrA dAtuM sthirIkR^itavantaH|
and said, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver him to you?” So they weighed out for him thirty pieces of silver.
16 sa tadArabhya taM parakareShu samarpayituM suyogaM cheShTitavAn|
From that time he sought opportunity to betray him.
17 anantaraM kiNvashUnyapUpaparvvaNaH prathamehni shiShyA yIshum upagatya paprachChuH bhavatkR^ite kutra vayaM nistAramahabhojyam AyojayiShyAmaH? bhavataH kechChA?
Now on the first day of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying to him, “Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?”
18 tadA sa gaditavAn, madhyenagaramamukapuMsaH samIpaM vrajitvA vadata, guru rgaditavAn, matkAlaH savidhaH, saha shiShyaistvadAlaye nistAramahabhojyaM bhokShye|
He said, “Go into the city to a certain person, and tell him, ‘The Teacher says, “My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.”’”
19 tadA shiShyA yIshostAdR^ishanideshAnurUpakarmma vidhAya tatra nistAramahabhojyamAsAdayAmAsuH|
The disciples did as Jesus commanded them, and they prepared the Passover.
20 tataH sandhyAyAM satyAM dvAdashabhiH shiShyaiH sAkaM sa nyavishat|
Now when evening had come, he was reclining at the table with the twelve disciples.
21 aparaM bhu njAna uktavAn yuShmAn tathyaM vadAmi, yuShmAkameko mAM parakareShu samarpayiShyati|
As they were eating, he said, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”
22 tadA te. atIva duHkhitA ekaikasho vaktumArebhire, he prabho, sa kimahaM?
They were exceedingly sorrowful, and each began to ask him, “It isn’t me, is it, Lord?”
23 tataH sa jagAda, mayA sAkaM yo jano bhojanapAtre karaM saMkShipati, sa eva mAM parakareShu samarpayiShyati|
He answered, “He who dipped his hand with me in the dish will betray me.
24 manujasutamadhi yAdR^ishaM likhitamAste, tadanurUpA tadgati rbhaviShyati; kintu yena puMsA sa parakareShu samarpayiShyate, hA hA chet sa nAjaniShyata, tadA tasya kShemamabhaviShyat|
The Son of Man goes even as it is written of him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for that man if he had not been born.”
25 tadA yihUdAnAmA yo janastaM parakareShu samarpayiShyati, sa uktavAn, he guro, sa kimahaM? tataH sa pratyuktavAn, tvayA satyaM gaditam|
Judas, who betrayed him, answered, “It isn’t me, is it, Rabbi?” He said to him, “You said it.”
26 anantaraM teShAmashanakAle yIshuH pUpamAdAyeshvarIyaguNAnanUdya bhaMktvA shiShyebhyaH pradAya jagAda, madvapuHsvarUpamimaM gR^ihItvA khAdata|
As they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks for it, and broke it. He gave to the disciples and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.”
27 pashchAt sa kaMsaM gR^ihlan IshvarIyaguNAnanUdya tebhyaH pradAya kathitavAn, sarvvai ryuShmAbhiranena pAtavyaM,
He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, “All of you drink it,
28 yasmAdanekeShAM pApamarShaNAya pAtitaM yanmannUtnaniyamarUpashoNitaM tadetat|
for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the remission of sins.
29 aparamahaM nUtnagostanIrasaM na pAsyAmi, tAvat gostanIphalarasaM punaH kadApi na pAsyAmi|
But I tell you that I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on, until that day when I drink it anew with you in my Father’s Kingdom.”
30 pashchAt te gItamekaM saMgIya jaitunAkhyagiriM gatavantaH|
When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
31 tadAnIM yIshustAnavochat, asyAM rajanyAmahaM yuShmAkaM sarvveShAM vighnarUpo bhaviShyAmi, yato likhitamAste, "meShANAM rakShako yastaM prahariShyAmyahaM tataH| meShANAM nivaho nUnaM pravikIrNo bhaviShyati"||
Then Jesus said to them, “All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’
32 kintu shmashAnAt samutthAya yuShmAkamagre. ahaM gAlIlaM gamiShyAmi|
But after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.”
33 pitarastaM provAcha, bhavAMshchet sarvveShAM vighnarUpo bhavati, tathApi mama na bhaviShyati|
But Peter answered him, “Even if all will be made to stumble because of you, I will never be made to stumble.”
34 tato yIshunA sa uktaH, tubhyamahaM tathyaM kathayAmi, yAminyAmasyAM charaNAyudhasya ravAt pUrvvaM tvaM mAM tri rnA NgIkariShyasi|
Jesus said to him, “Most certainly I tell you that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”
35 tataH pitara uditavAn, yadyapi tvayA samaM marttavyaM, tathApi kadApi tvAM na nA NgIkariShyAmi; tathaiva sarvve shiShyAshchochuH|
Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you.” All of the disciples also said likewise.
36 anantaraM yIshuH shiShyaiH sAkaM getshimAnInAmakaM sthAnaM prasthAya tebhyaH kathitavAn, adaH sthAnaM gatvA yAvadahaM prArthayiShye tAvad yUyamatropavishata|
Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I go there and pray.”
37 pashchAt sa pitaraM sivadiyasutau cha sa NginaH kR^itvA gatavAn, shokAkulo. atIva vyathitashcha babhUva|
He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and severely troubled.
38 tAnavAdIchcha mR^itiyAtaneva matprANAnAM yAtanA jAyate, yUyamatra mayA sArddhaM jAgR^ita|
Then Jesus said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with me.”
39 tataH sa ki nchiddUraM gatvAdhomukhaH patan prArthayA nchakre, he matpitaryadi bhavituM shaknoti, tarhi kaMso. ayaM matto dUraM yAtu; kintu madichChAvat na bhavatu, tvadichChAvad bhavatu|
He went forward a little, fell on his face, and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire.”
40 tataH sa shiShyAnupetya tAn nidrato nirIkShya pitarAya kathayAmAsa, yUyaM mayA sAkaM daNDamekamapi jAgarituM nAshankuta?
He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “What, couldn’t you watch with me for one hour?
41 parIkShAyAM na patituM jAgR^ita prArthayadhva ncha; AtmA samudyatosti, kintu vapu rdurbbalaM|
Watch and pray, that you don’t enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
42 sa dvitIyavAraM prArthayA nchakre, he mattAta, na pIte yadi kaMsamidaM matto dUraM yAtuM na shaknoti, tarhi tvadichChAvad bhavatu|
Again, a second time he went away and prayed, saying, “My Father, if this cup can’t pass away from me unless I drink it, your desire be done.”
43 sa punaretya tAn nidrato dadarsha, yatasteShAM netrANi nidrayA pUrNAnyAsan|
He came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
44 pashchAt sa tAn vihAya vrajitvA tR^itIyavAraM pUrvvavat kathayan prArthitavAn|
He left them again, went away, and prayed a third time, saying the same words.
45 tataH shiShyAnupAgatya gaditavAn, sAmprataM shayAnAH kiM vishrAmyatha? pashyata, samaya upAsthAt, manujasutaH pApinAM kareShu samarpyate|
Then he came to his disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 uttiShThata, vayaM yAmaH, yo mAM parakareShu masarpayiShyati, pashyata, sa samIpamAyAti|
Arise, let’s be going. Behold, he who betrays me is at hand.”

While he was still speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and elders of the people.
48 asau parakareShvarpayitA pUrvvaM tAn itthaM sa NketayAmAsa, yamahaM chumbiShye, so. asau manujaH, saeva yuShmAbhi rdhAryyatAM|
Now he who betrayed him had given them a sign, saying, “Whoever I kiss, he is the one. Seize him.”
49 tadA sa sapadi yIshumupAgatya he guro, praNamAmItyuktvA taM chuchumbe|
Immediately he came to Jesus, and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed him.
50 tadA yIshustamuvAcha, he mitraM kimarthamAgatosi? tadA tairAgatya yIshurAkramya daghre|
Jesus said to him, “Friend, why are you here?” Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.
51 tato yIshoH sa NginAmekaH karaM prasAryya koShAdasiM bahiShkR^itya mahAyAjakasya dAsamekamAhatya tasya karNaM chichCheda|
Behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
52 tato yIshustaM jagAda, khaDgaM svasthAne nidhehi yato ye ye janA asiM dhArayanti, taevAsinA vinashyanti|
Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place, for all those who take the sword will die by the sword.
53 aparaM pitA yathA madantikaM svargIyadUtAnAM dvAdashavAhinIto. adhikaM prahiNuyAt mayA tamuddishyedAnImeva tathA prArthayituM na shakyate, tvayA kimitthaM j nAyate?
Or do you think that I couldn’t ask my Father, and he would even now send me more than twelve legions of angels?
54 tathA satItthaM ghaTiShyate dharmmapustakasya yadidaM vAkyaM tat kathaM sidhyet?
How then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that it must be so?”
55 tadAnIM yIshu rjananivahaM jagAda, yUyaM khaDgayaShTIn AdAya mAM kiM chauraM dharttumAyAtAH? ahaM pratyahaM yuShmAbhiH sAkamupavishya samupAdishaM, tadA mAM nAdharata;
In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, “Have you come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and you didn’t arrest me.
56 kintu bhaviShyadvAdinAM vAkyAnAM saMsiddhaye sarvvametadabhUt|tadA sarvve shiShyAstaM vihAya palAyanta|
But all this has happened that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left him and fled.
57 anantaraM te manujA yIshuM dhR^itvA yatrAdhyApakaprA nchaH pariShadaM kurvvanta upAvishan tatra kiyaphAnAmakamahAyAjakasyAntikaM ninyuH|
Those who had taken Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together.
58 kintu sheShe kiM bhaviShyatIti vettuM pitaro dUre tatpashchAd vrajitvA mahAyAjakasyATTAlikAM pravishya dAsaiH sahita upAvishat|
But Peter followed him from a distance to the court of the high priest, and entered in and sat with the officers, to see the end.
59 tadAnIM pradhAnayAjakaprAchInamantriNaH sarvve yIshuM hantuM mR^iShAsAkShyam alipsanta,
Now the chief priests, the elders, and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus, that they might put him to death,
60 kintu na lebhire| anekeShu mR^iShAsAkShiShvAgateShvapi tanna prApuH|
and they found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward
61 sheShe dvau mR^iShAsAkShiNAvAgatya jagadatuH, pumAnayamakathayat, ahamIshvaramandiraM bhaMktvA dinatrayamadhye tannirmmAtuM shaknomi|
and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.’”
62 tadA mahAyAjaka utthAya yIshum avAdIt| tvaM kimapi na prativadasi? tvAmadhi kimete sAkShyaM vadanti?
The high priest stood up and said to him, “Have you no answer? What is this that these testify against you?”
63 kintu yIshu rmaunIbhUya tasyau| tato mahAyAjaka uktavAn, tvAm amareshvaranAmnA shapayAmi, tvamIshvarasya putro. abhiShikto bhavasi naveti vada|
But Jesus stayed silent. The high priest answered him, “I adjure you by the living God that you tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God.”
64 yIshuH pratyavadat, tvaM satyamuktavAn; ahaM yuShmAn tathyaM vadAmi, itaHparaM manujasutaM sarvvashaktimato dakShiNapArshve sthAtuM gagaNasthaM jaladharAnAruhyAyAntaM vIkShadhve|
Jesus said to him, “You have said so. Nevertheless, I tell you, after this you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of the sky.”
65 tadA mahAyAjako nijavasanaM ChittvA jagAda, eSha IshvaraM ninditavAn, asmAkamaparasAkShyeNa kiM prayojanaM? pashyata, yUyamevAsyAsyAd IshvaranindAM shrutavantaH,
Then the high priest tore his clothing, saying, “He has spoken blasphemy! Why do we need any more witnesses? Behold, now you have heard his blasphemy.
66 yuShmAbhiH kiM vivichyate? te pratyUchuH, vadhArho. ayaM|
What do you think?” They answered, “He is worthy of death!”
67 tato lokaistadAsye niShThIvitaM kechit pratalamAhatya kechichcha chapeTamAhatya babhAShire,
Then they spat in his face and beat him with their fists, and some slapped him,
68 he khrIShTa tvAM kashchapeTamAhatavAn? iti gaNayitvA vadAsmAn|
saying, “Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who hit you?”
69 pitaro bahira Ngana upavishati, tadAnImekA dAsI tamupAgatya babhAShe, tvaM gAlIlIyayIshoH sahacharaekaH|
Now Peter was sitting outside in the court, and a maid came to him, saying, “You were also with Jesus, the Galilean!”
70 kintu sa sarvveShAM samakSham ana NgIkR^ityAvAdIt, tvayA yaduchyate, tadarthamahaM na vedmi|
But he denied it before them all, saying, “I don’t know what you are talking about.”
71 tadA tasmin bahirdvAraM gate. anyA dAsI taM nirIkShya tatratyajanAnavadat, ayamapi nAsaratIyayIshunA sArddham AsIt|
When he had gone out onto the porch, someone else saw him and said to those who were there, “This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
72 tataH sa shapathena punarana NgIkR^itya kathitavAn, taM naraM na parichinomi|
Again he denied it with an oath, “I don’t know the man.”
73 kShaNAt paraM tiShThanto janA etya pitaram avadan, tvamavashyaM teShAmeka iti tvaduchchAraNameva dyotayati|
After a little while those who stood by came and said to Peter, “Surely you are also one of them, for your speech makes you known.”
74 kintu so. abhishapya kathitavAn, taM janaM nAhaM parichinomi, tadA sapadi kukkuTo rurAva|
Then he began to curse and to swear, “I don’t know the man!” Immediately the rooster crowed.
75 kukkuTaravAt prAk tvaM mAM trirapAhnoShyase, yaiShA vAg yIshunAvAdi tAM pitaraH saMsmR^itya bahiritvA khedAd bhR^ishaM chakranda|
Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said to him, “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” Then he went out and wept bitterly.
